Led the top pitch, great fun and sustained interest. Lots of variety - slabby bit, layback, technical near the top. Plenty of gear. Felt tough but I wasn't feeling that realxed for some reason. Maybe it because that all the flakes just above the belay were loose! Didn't get off to a great start there... Mike led P1 which was also suprisingly interesting and worthwhile, no pushover at 4c there. Classic.andyjirvin - AltLd O/S - 18/Aug/14

Trystan lea leading and Dan bates following me up!...absolutley stunning day for a very exiting route!...struggled a bit on the traverse but thoroughly enjoyed the challenge!outlaw87 - 2nd - 20/May/14

I led P1, Charley led P2. According to a guy who instructs there regularly I took the trickier option on the first pitch which hand traverses up and across to the groove rather than stepping around to the easier ascent on the left. I found it quite strenuous as I'm definitely out of condition and didn't trust my hand to hold the move out left at the top so went through instead. :D Easy to get wedged in there and had to rearrange gear and chalkbag in order to wiggle through but got there in the end. P2 was awesome. Bit of a slab followed by excellent jamming up the cracks and then a few nice delicate moves at the top. Excellent climb.valentinesbabe - AltLd O/S - 15/May/14 with Charley Fell, Kevin Tithe

Led P2 - fantastic route, all the way up. Great climbing and some nice moves. Mis-read the guidebook and ended up placing far too much gear as expected the top section to be bold but small wires protected it fine.charley - Lead O/S - 15/May/14 with Ange, Kev

Led P2. The move left was the crux for me. From the mini-ledge I went up first and then left. It involved an exciting match on a horizontal finger break. Well protected.Steve Waters, Mynydd - AltLd - 20/Apr/14 with Mike Tempest

Right at my current limit - wouldn't have fancied leading the last steep bit. Made it more difficult for myself by missing the traverse/step left on pitch 2 and going straight up.Phil Layton - 2nd O/S - 30/Mar/14 with simon

I led the top pitch which is pretty good climbing with plenty of gear. very near the top there is a hold that sounds hollow (I nearly place a cam but rethought that idea when I saw the hold move a little) and could potentially come off with some unknown force!highclimber - 23/Oct/13

Fantastic route although the first pitch is probably worth 5a too - pretty out there climbing at the grade. The top pitch is incredible and the whole route is sustained with no really easy sections but bomber gear all the wayRob84 - AltLd O/S - 02/Jun/13 with Ceara, Mel

Both pitches. Excellent climbing throughout. P1 was tougher than expected, the steep hand traverse looked daunting from below, but the jugs were huge and lots of them.asmith37 - Lead O/S - 01/Jun/13 with Bex Leigh

I led p1 (4c option), C led p2 - her first HVS lead, done with confidence. She made a better job of it than I did of my pitch, but at least I managed it in the end!Simon Caldwell - AltLd O/S - 06/May/13 with Carmen

Led P1 which is pretty 'physical' and a touch bold. Bit of polish too. Jez led P2. I fell off as I was taking the piss out of all the gear he'd placed. Irony!!
Good route.Mike Nolan - AltLd - 03/Apr/13

Pitch 1 has various options 4a, 4c, 6a, we did the 4c which i have previously led. Pitch 2 has a very difficult start common to the 4b & 5a options. The direct crack is ok, the slab / wall is steep but then it is HVS 5a so probably find for the grade.Simon Cahill - 2nd β - 02/Aug/12 with Paul & Garat

What a stonking route, even thinking about it now makes me smile. P1 is pumpy with good gear if you can hang on and place it. P2 has literally everything in it, laybacking an amazing flake, delicate pull across onto slab and balancy moves to the top. Sunny day, great exposure, one of my fave routes for sure !!!!Matt Smith - AltLd O/S - 18/Mar/12 with Joe Premier

chris led 1st pitch and i led second pitch but nearly mad a new finish by trying to go up head wall direct,thought better of it and got back on route to finish with ease.jon_gill1 - AltLd rpt - 25/Feb/12 with anthony smith, chris Lyness

Lead both pitches - first multi pitch HVS. Superb route with a bit of everything.
P1 Tricky groovewith a strenuous move left at top to avoid overhang; don't go too early, good hold high in corner crack.
P2 tricky & delicate slab to gain crack then strenuous layback escaped at top with a move left - note to self - improve jamming ! - then short move up and delicate traverse left to gain narrow crack which trends right to top. Good limestone grounding made crack seem fairly easy :-) but superb position on a glorious day - loved it !!jandyd05 - Lead O/S - 13/Nov/11 with Julie Anglesea

best climb of the weekend,2nd pitch has everything-long crack for jamming/layback, then quality exposed face moves. just brilliant!!Tom Redmond - 2nd O/S - 17/Oct/10 with high peak club

Lead top pitch. Really nice climb, if soft. In Oct/08 with John - Didn't fancy the corner of Merlin so did what I later found out is in the guidebook is the 5a start to this - really enjoyable! Pitch 1 only though due to rain.thomasadixon - AltLd O/S - 17/Oct/10 with Mike

The best outdoor route so far. I lead the first pitch, nice clean onsight and some great gear placements. Ollie lead the more exposed ballsy second pitch, but I gunna give it a go next time!!!tomvet2b - AltLd O/S - 24/Jun/09 with Ollie Padget

10 minutes after it stopped hailing. Led both pitches - top one onsight (and v good) but seconded P1 as a novice with Jim & Dan in 2003. Jim finished up Daddy Cool then I think.Owen W-G - Lead O/S - 11/Apr/08 with Simon Denison

Lead first pitch. Really nice steep traverse, felt like a commiting move. Have previously lead the second pitch with JA. Glorious day - wall to wall sunshine!PenJD - Lead - 27/Mar/08 with Simon Palmer

ended up 2nding this instead of alt leads,was still mentally drained from Micah finish in the hail & sleet the day before and struggled to lead pitch 2,so backed off & Rob did the honours.mike bridges - 2nd O/S - 22/Mar/08 with Robert Bridges

Lovely climbing. Done many times over the years. Threw the double-ropes down when i untied and Dick nearly went the same way, but just grabbed him in time. He was still attached to the ropes!!!Sean Kelly - Lead - Jul/68 with Dick Curtis
